Hirsute has an updated grub2 which improves networking performance during provisioning.
See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/2.04-1ubuntu37 The file that maas streams use from https://images.maas.io/ephemeral-v3/stable/bootloaders/uefi/amd64/20201123.0/grub2-signed.tar.xz is this one http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hirsute/main/uefi/grub2-amd64/2.04-1ubuntu37/grubnetx64.efi.signed I would be interested to know if above improves provisioning reliability, and/or speed. This should improve TCP deployments. But there are more things we can do. Specifically there are patches available, but not yet integrated, that should allow to have HTTP and HTTPS provisioning be done with firmware accelerated code, i.e. reusing leases from UEFI firmware and using UEFI firmware paths for HTTP/HTTPS networking, without using the grub network stack per-se. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1900668 Title: MAAS PXE Boot stalls with grub 2.02 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas-images/+bug/1900668/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
